Morgan Wallen Adds a Second Hometown Stadium Show

Morgan Wallen Adds a Second Hometown Stadium Show

A second hometown stadium show is in the works for Morgan Wallen who recently reactivated his Instagram to hype up the newly-announced shows.

Wallen has now booked a second night at Knoxville, Tenn.’s Neyland Stadium. The originally-announced show was set for Sept. 22, and now, he’s planning another night in the stadium on Sept. 20. Between the two nights, the country superstar is expecting to perform for nearly 150,000 fans during his stay in Knoxville.

Tickets for the two shows will go on sale July 18.

On his current 2024 One Night at a Time Tour, Wallen has routinely been playing stadium shows, but these two dates are special. Neyland Stadium is a hometown venue for the singer, who hails from Sneedville, Tenn., just an hour and a half northeast of Knoxville. It’s also the home of the Tennessee Volunteers, which is Wallen’s football team.

He’s bringing two of his closest collaborators and most frequent tour mates to the stage: Both nights at Neyland will feature opening sets from Ernest and Hardy. Those two artist-songwriters have teamed up with Wallen in the studio and the songwriting rooms, as well as on the stage, many times over the years, and they’re two of his best friends in country music.

Wallen recently postponed a handful of One Night at a Time tour dates due to illness. However, he’s slated to continue the run into October, with several more domestic and international dates on the books.
